    <h2>svnrobots.txt</h2>

    <p>
        Server administrators and/or committers of a Subversion repository
        can limit <a href="/CommitMonitor.html">CommitMonitor</a> from accessing
        the repository too often or do automatic diffs.
    </p>
    <p>
        This is what the <code>svnrobots.txt</code> file is for. CommitMonitor
        looks for such a file and uses its content to limit the check
        interval time and/or disallow automatic diffs.
    </p>
    <p>
        The format of the file is simple:
    </p>
<pre>
# this is an example svnrobots.txt file
#
# the checkinterval line sets the minimum interval in minutes between
# update checks:
checkinterval = 90
# the disallowautodiff line if it's present forces the check apps
# to *not* do automatic diffs:
disallowautodiff

# the 'search path' used to find the svnrobots.txt file is as follows,
# assuming the monitored URL is http://www.example.com/svn/project/trunk
#
# http://www.example.com/svnrobots.txt (web root)
# http://www.example.com/svn/project/svnrobots.txt  (repository root)
# http://www.example.com/svn/project/trunk/svnrobots.txt
#
# the first found file is used to limit the commit monitor.
